  3. Iraqi heel tosses shoe at President. Secret Service Agent given the boot for being a loafer.

    so, I deleted the first one because I saw a better edit. Throw a shoe at me. Preferably something new and expensive I can sell on eBay.

  5. I missed it last night but Drew re-enacted the whole thing for me and we laughed, oh how we laughed

  6. I know, I know!

    Certainly wasn't rolling around the floor laughing when it happened.

    Oh no.

  7. Well, he's survived 8 years without being shot by his VP, so I suppose dodging a couple of shoes is no big deal ;-)

  9. One important question that I haven't seen answered anywhere is, did he keep the shoes? He's going to be out of work soon and, even with his generous pension, free footwear might come in handy to stretch his budget. I just hope they were his size.

  10. What was surprising was that it took the secret service guys like 45 seconds to react after the first and second shoe. I guess they are lame duck too but come on, you are in Iraq, in the belly of the beast. Dubya has pather like reflexes. Maybe he will get a shoe endorsement.

  11. This could be a good post-President career down at the carnival...

  12. We throw much bigger things at him here in Texas, so he's had lots of practice.

  13. That was seriously violent...I didn't realize the velocity behind the tossed shoes, since I heard about it on NPR!

    Something's wrong w/ HB...you dropped off the front page. You probably already know that, though.

    Hope the secret Santa round 2 event comes to fruition!

  14. Wow, and we thought our press was vicious!

  15. Yes he does! After seeing how long it took the security guys to react, people are lucky it was only shoes, and not knives or a grenade.

    But the more I watch it, the funnier it becomes.

  16. At least the guy only threw shoes, and didn't try to toss a camera or something..

    GW might be able to dodge a size 8 sandal, but some Toshiba camcorder?

    I doubt it.

  17. The first one would have gotten him if he hadn't have ducked. The secret service must make him practice.
